Newport, Giles Co., Va., July 8th. The writer of this letter, after cbn stant application to business for almost live years, seeks the mountains for, rest and pure air, and is now found ihJNew- port, a pleasant little village of about three hundred inhabitants. '.' .i Leaving Charlotte on the morning of the 1st instant,' oyer the-Richmond 'and Danville Railroad, pnis1 of the ""beat equipped and most -pleasant riding roads in the South, I arrived in Dan ville at 10 a. m., after a ride of ix hours. This, the first city we come s to in Virginia after leaving North Caro lina, is too well known to your readera to need comment at my nands. a tramp's reasoning. An amusing scene occurred shortly after leaving Charlotte, which ended to the discomfort and unhappiness of 'a way-worn traveler, and who represents that class which is commonly designat ed by the term "Tramp." Apparently tired, and very dirty, he had entered the car unobserved and settled him self for a pleasant ride and a re'fresni ing sleep, but he sadly missed his cal culation. Hardly had sleep wrapped him in its embrace, when the conduc tor entered, calling out "Tickets 1"; trampy being the first to meet his eyes. Seizing now the deep-sleeping traveler by the arm, he shook him vehemently, at the same time asking for his ticket. "Cap, you are pretty rough with a fellow." "Give me your ticket," said the con ductor. "That is something I never have any use for. Our profession doesn't re quire us to use tickets. We are so con stantly on the road that it is presumed all railroad men know us." "Are you one of the officials of the road," enquired the conductor in a gen tlemanly manner. "Not exactly; but then, you see, 'labor vs. capital' is the order of things these days, and as I've spent the . best portion of my life in the interest of the capitalist with nothing to show for it, and having a desire to see the country, I consider it my right to travel where I please without pass or money." "That is not the way our roads view the matter, and if you expect to travel on cheek you had better take another route," and with this the bell rope is pulled, the train stopped and trampy in vited to step down and off, and the last seen of him he was seated by the si4e; of the road, no doubt meditating on; the, uncertainty of life. ' ; AT LYNCHBURG. . - Leaving Danville at 12:30 p. nj. w arrived in Lynchburg about 2:30 ps in; The mountain scenery along the line is verv interestine. but as the -traveler tnoresw, ana ou-nrering- tne uvbitue eye rests on ona-ujer uirj :&uusmr. ..mui "esaue lkridscaDsth&tit haserec been 'ayvtxege tbehdWlcitj prop er is to the lert, situatea jar aoove tne depot, rendering it impossible for jdrie At the-depot was to beaeen , a cr wd seldom witnessed on oTdinary occasibns as waa learned ftom one who seerxred; to be connected with the road, j On; being asked what it all meant he 1 re plied that it was a crowd of plea$ure( seekers on their wav to the various' springs in Virginia.

Down, down we; wenji along the side of a pic turesque and craggy ravine, until we reached -, THE CASCADE Which 1 will tar to describe. Through the ravine flows a stream as clear as crystal and refreshingly cool, until it reaches a precipice eighty-eight feet high, when in one grand silvery sheet it dashes itself in awful fury over into a basin below. After viewing the falls from above we descended with, much Uiffieulty and safely gained a firm foot ing oeioWj to least tne eye on s grander sight than we had imagined. ; Ob eith er side in majestic beauty overhung immense rocks, shelving out and pro tecting a perfect floor of rock from the5: rays of the son or the blasts of the1 storm. It is just such a place as to filr' one with wopder and admiration, and the heart to" beat with gratified ac' knewledgmenl to Him who formed the" earth, and the lips to utter mi deepest 'feeling,'" Lorr trowi wonderful -are Thy worksi in wisdom liast Thou made them all." ' . .-.The eye and soul refreshed, as well as the body, we commenced our ascent and had to pass under the falls Ah hour's tedious walk brought us 'to the point t Which we left our teaim. All things being made ready we?etrac ed our journey to the point of interest we first came to on our way to the .cas cade. Two hours' ride bripgs us to this point and we are at THE LAKE, Or "The Switzerland of America," Where we deeided to remain until the cool of the eveningr Bpending the time in boating on the lake,' rolling ten-pins, visiting the springs, &c. This lake is said to deri ye its. name, from the fcf thatwhenbriiimallprjnrid such as may be seerflh almost any locality, the, cattle grazing on the .mountains went, thither to water, and there, also, the owners of stock used to salt them, caus ing the soil to become .impregnated with salt and. giving the waters a salt ish taste. But this :was when this now beautiful, sheet Qf water was, only an vunahserved ilittie pond.: Since .fihose , days nature and time has .completely transformed this place into, aa .deght i&lca summer resort as,? :me. !W;Qu)d de-1 sire at which to spepd tjape jifrom heat.; dust, . ; and eYerithipg.plsa that makes summer , so ..uacoiafortable. Prom a little pond has grown as lovely a-sheet oft water as; the eye could .wish to rest on, . covering an , , area . of. fifty acres and three-fourths of a mile , long. It is said.to be the . only; lake, in Vir ginia, and during this season of the year is especially attractive, its banks being covered with myriads of flowers. Clus lake, although, not known to many of the readers. of The Observer, has quite a reputation; North, being much sought by , tourists from PhQad el phia, Boston, and otner Northern ci ties. There is situated o& the south side of, the lake & large hotel,, furnished with ail the conveniences and comforts I of a summer resort, besides; a' ten4pin aiiey ana billiard,; hall, a short distance from the main building. The proprie tor 01 this in viting place does not claim any medicinal properties for the water, but . no ice-water could be colder pr purer than is found here The attralc-: tiyeness of the place is in the health fulness of location and its fine scenery. THE ELEVATION. The hotel is on one of the highest mountains, being four: thousand feet above sea-level, and said to be twice as high as the celebrated hotels of the White Mountain region. Eifteen min utes' walk takes the tourist to Bald Knob, claimed to be the highest point in Virginia overlooking three States. Rocky glens, groves and cascades of great beauty are readily accessible, i - The time allotted for our stay at the lake passed rapidly, but not until the eye had fully feasted on nature grand work. At 5 o'clock we commenced de scending the mountain, reaching New port in time for supper, satisfied with the trip, the impressions of which will last as long as time itself. Derfla.
